Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Standardized imaging protocol consensus among panelists

  Standardized imaging protocol among panelists after multiple rounds of Delphi consensus survey (technical parameters, e. g. contrast phases, oral contrast etc.)

  6 months after finalization of the last survey round

Secondary Outcomes (2)

• Description of technical comparability of datasets for radiomic and AI analyses

  6 months after finalization of the last survey round

• Description of heterogeneity of mCRC imaging protocols

  6 months after finalization of the last survey round

Study Arms (2)

Expert panelists

Expert panelists will be recruited from EORTC Imaging Group, EORTC GI Group, ESOI and ESGAR and will actively participate in the imaging survey rounds.

Other: Imaging survey

Facilitators

The two central facilitators will moderate and guide the survey rounds. Blinded results will be forwarded to the expert panelists by the facilitators. Further Survey rounds will be adapted by the facilitators according to the previous answers given by the panelists.

Other: Facilitation
